The manager was rather jealous of the attentions of his leading man to his wife, who played the feminine leads. The company rehearsed the scene of an elopement, watched intently by the children. As the boss was not present, the director and his staff decided to take time off for a "little game." The leading man urged the leading lady to come and rest with him under a neighboring tree. The children got hold of the camera and decided to make a picture on their own account. They acted a burlesque of the scene they had just seen, and then fate inspired them to experiment with the panorama handle. The next day the company was invited into the projection room to see yesterday's results. The kids managed to sneak in, too. Then was revealed how the actors wasted their time, and the pressing attentions of the leading man to the Manager's wife gave that gentleman a painful shock. Everybody was tired, but the children were rewarded with slices of pie by their loving mother for having kept their clothes so clean! Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
